Froggo Rö Folder - Everything needed to run the LATEST publicly available client.

[Sapito Sucio]

Froggo Rö Folder

This is a simple RO folder that contains everything you need to run a 2022-04-06 client, the latest publicly available.

I have cleaned and compressed the data.grf file to reduce its size from 3.87GB to 2.14GB. official_data.grf took the same treatment and the file size went down to 426MB.

Additionally, I have added a mini-map to all those maps that were lacking one, approximately 275 mini-maps were added, I only ignored some indoor (_in) and guild castles maps.

Before BGM, the Rö folder has a total size of 2.62GB, after BGM it reaches 2.96GB

FAQ

Why am I getting CHARACTER_INFO size error when trying to log in?

Possible reasons:

• You are using outdated rAthena which doesn't work with 2022-04-06 client.
• You haven't set correct PACKETVER or done it with mistakes (skill issue ).
• You haven't recompiled rAthena.
• You haven't restarted server after recompilation.

Why am I getting errors about MSVCP140.dll, VCRUNTIME140.dll when executing FroggoClient.exe?

You haven't installed Visual C++ Redist, check requirements section, if problem persists, try installing this too Visual C++ Redist for VS 2012u4

What is official_data.grf ?

 official_data.grf  is from the ROResourceCollection project, which brings many items, mobs and npc files from other RO Regions and merges it into one convenient grf.

Why does the Setup.exe opens instead of the FroggoClient.exe?

In your Windows registry there is no data about your selected graphic card, to fix it, just set up your settings in  Setup.exe  and click on OK, be aware to don't select DirectX9, stay on DirectX7

What was removed from the data.grf?

Several unnecessary files were removed from the  data.grf . These included residual files such as  thumbs.db  and stray BMP Screenshots. However, the majority of the cleanup was performed in the mob and npc sprite folders.

In these folders, some .spr files contained sprites (images) that were not utilized in their corresponding .act files. For example, the monster katrinn's .spr file contained approximately 140 images, but only 6 of them were actually used.

In total, out of nearly 90,000 collective images, around 9,400 were removed alv.

Thank you, guys, I really hope this helps the newbies struggling with setting up the client.  At least for a renewal environment...

Have you tried not opening it with the explorer? Try with Winrar, or 7Zip or Bandizip

Sure, you can use whatever you need, if you don't need/want the packet viewer just rename the extension (.mix) to whatever you want or just simply delete the file

Honestly, mirroring the download link feels a bit pointless to me. The repo's getting updates overtime, and trying to keep up with mirroring every new version? Nah, not really my jam.

I recommend redownloading it, as it appears your initial download may have been corrupted.

Built-in archive support in windows is a joke, it has never been good. Use 7-zip (free) or equivalent software to extract !

I successfully disabled the packet viewer by renaming it. Thanks for the tip.

@Sapito Sucio If I'm not mistaken Froggo RO seems to have been hexed for 150 inventory limit but as far as I understand this requires editing the server config ? Perhaps you should leave this at 90 or whatever's the standard KRO limit or add mention of this quirk on the first post ?

Also, not sure you can do something about it even if I set DirectX7 in Setup it always reverts to DirectX9 for some reason

This is so true, even on the latest Windows 11

True, I should mention the client's patches applied that requires src side editing, I will look into that.

And, no, the 2022-04-06 is not capable of DirectX9, that's for really new clients ( > 2023-10-00), which are not publicly available yet, stick with DirectX7 for the moment.

Sorry I should have worded what I meant to say better. Everytime I close Froggo RO the client's DirectX setting goes back to DX9. So when I go to Setup, it's on DX9 again.

Oh I see! Sorry, I misread it xD
I think that's only visual, because, if DirectX9 was really selected the FroggoClient wouldn't start.

Please consider shipping RoOpenSetup instead of the regular Setup

I use it on my local folder, I don't know If I should ship it on the ro-folder too, tho, as it can cause problems with some graphic cards, mostly AMDs

[eleriaqueen]

Oh you added OpenSetup after I downloaded FroggoClient that's why

I would advise against shipping DgVoodoo with FroggoClient simply because it's not widely used so some people may struggle to configure it decently and people would ask you a lot of troubleshooting questions about DgVoodoo and not your client.

Ye, that's exactly what I was thinking
